Biophotonics is the application and development of optical methods like diagnosing & imaging used to study tissues, cells and molecules. It is a combination of biology and photonics. Biophotonics refers to emission, detection, modification, reflection, absorption and creation of radiation from organisms, cells, tissues and biomaterials.

The Biophotonics market has evolved and expanded over the years due to its multifaceted uses and applications in the areas of agriculture, life science, medicine and environmental science. Rising demand for healthcare quality and surge in population of aging masses all around the globe are the key factors driving the growth of the Biophotonics market. Availability of funds for research & development, private support and government assistance are fuelling the growth of Biophotonics market. Further, modernization of optical technologies in aerospace industry and telecom sector has provided a boost to the Biophotonics market growth. In addition to this, rise in demand for non medical areas of Biophotonics applications comprising prevention of unauthorized data access and detection of pathogens in agricultural food items is expected to enhance the growth of this market during the forecasted period of 2013 to 2020.

The Biophotonics market report is bifurcated into three market sections based on its end use, applications and geographical locations.
